SAVE $200: Amazon has the 13-inch Apple MacBook Air (M4, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD) on sale for just $799 as of Sept. 3, but only in two colors. That’s 20% off its $999 MSRP and its lowest price to date.
Apple’s 13-inch M4 MacBook Air has been on sale for the record-low price of $799 on Amazon since just after Prime Day in late July — a $200 savings on the usual $999 sticker price. It’s a sizable discount we never expected to see so soon in the laptop‘s life cycle, given its popularity and already reasonable MSRP. That said, it looks like we might not see it for much longer.
As of Sept. 3, the base M4 MacBook Air is still marked down to $799 on Amazon, but only in two colors: starlight and sky blue. The midnight and silver variants have risen to $879, or just $120 off. We check the listing daily, and this is the first time we’ve noticed this change.
Meanwhile, all four colorways are bumped up to $879.40 at Best Buy, which usually matches Amazon’s MacBook deals to the cent. The writing’s on the wall: This deal is probably on its way out.
For reference, the 13-inch M4 MacBook Air is the latest iteration of Apple’s smallest, lightest laptop and its best option for budget shoppers, IMO. It’s ridiculously fast but quiet, its 12MP selfie camera is an improvement over its predecessor‘s 1080p shooter, and it now supports two external displays with its lid open.

Mashable Deals
The M4 MacBook Air starts with 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. If you need a tad more storage in your daily driver, you can upgrade to the 512GB model for $999 (normally $1,199) — and take your pick from any color.
